St. Paul daily globe., 1887-08-27

seems to be causing him a good deal of
trouble and distress, and the indications
are that the n-with-the-big-liver will
need bracer before he gets entirely
through the threShing machine.

The enemies of SPARKS appear to be
greatly distressed over the proposition
to invite the red-headed land king to
Dakota. 1t seems like a useless waste
of wind. If SPARKS wants to come to
Dakota he will concentration or no
invitation-and the man who worries
about his plans or intentions wastes his
time.
The edition presided over by gentle
man with the magic initials of &c. A.
P.'' wasted a good deal of space last
week in de failing the narrowing plot
being cOncOcted by the Hon. NJ. III. DAY
to send an anti-CLEvELAND delegation
from Dakota to the next Democratic ma
tiOnal convention. 1t was a good dog
days story, but the early frosts have
nipped it. Mr.. DAY is too shrewd to at
tempt such a thing, either to-day or
some other day.
1t is hard to tell which will be the
best attraction-the Mitchell or Grand
Forks fairs or the Huron encampment.
Dakota is looming up as a place of
amusement and instruction.
If Editor PIERCE is the honorable
gentleman he is credited with being. he
will at once retract the inSinuation that
officials in the employ of the territorial
administration are connected with the
GLOBE as staff contributors-or. in fact,
as contributors of any character to its
regular or Dakota edition. The worthy
gentleman is informed that the depart
ment credited to staff contributor,
which appears in each Saturdays edi-
ton of the GLOBE, is conducted by
well-known citizen of Dakota, who is
thoroughly informed about her affairs;
that he does not reside at Bismarck, and
that he has no connection whatever
with the administration. One of his
letters was dated at Bismarck simply
because he happened to be there tempo
rarily at the time of writing it. This is
a small matter, to be sure, but the peo-
pie of the territory had just as well have
knowledge of the facts.

THE BIsAMRCK SETTLER is either OBJ
tuse or willfully malicious. 1t makes the
startling statement that the GLOBE has
come out as the especial champion of
Gov. CHURCH and is the prime mover in
an attempt to bear down Ex-Gov.
PIERCE. The GLOBE has shown pretty
cOncIusively that it is not, nor will it
ever be, the organ or especial champion
of any man or faction, and this is true
in the case of Gov. CHURCH. AS to any
attacks on eX-Gov. PIERCE, the GLOBE
has never made any, and the
assertion of the Settler is arrant
nonsense. The GLOBE publishes
Dakota edition and in this
special number it admits communica-
tionS from reputable citizens, discussing,
in fair and manly way, issues effect
ing the interests of the territory. The
GLOBE, as a matter of course. is not re-
sponsibie for the expressions of opinion
therein. Its views and policy are found
in the editorial columns, which are
plainly designated. The GLOBE has its
viewS-which it is always willingsto ex-
press-yet at the same time it is always
willing to allow correspondents, whose
reliability is known, very liberal lati-
tude. 8-'" -'-s--s

Was Gen. CAMPBELL sucked in by the
same whirlpool that engulphed the divi-
sion bubble at Yankton on the 10th?
He disappeared so suddenly that some
alarm is felt for his safety. ~
Rumors about FRANK PETTIGREw's
future" float about quite veluminouSly.
The one best founded is to the effect
that he is lying low while the other fel-
lows are tearing each other: to. pieces.
Whensthe bones are well picked. he cal
culates to walk in over the skeletons.
Oh. Colby, dear Colby. why don't you come
back
And let us the documents view;
The people are anxions to see you again
And get a clear statement from YOU
OF course when you rushed off in haste to the
coast ~
You knew that the papers would give you
roast,
But, come! make a clean breast-or send
back your ghost
Oh, Colby, dear Colby, do come!

IF Carruth souelches the Rell this will
leave an opening for Bagley, of the
Wentworth Setter. Mr.. Bagley should
let out little slack in his suspenders
and get ready for business.

Evidently the wild stories about Hon.
NJ. II. DAYS designs upon the national
and territorial administrations are with
out the slightest foundation. The gen.
tleman is buried out in the Black Hills,
away from the communicating influences
of politicians, and gives it Out-on his
own authority-that he is giving no
thought to politics. That ought to set
tie it.
THE Aberdeen News gets away off its
base when it says that the GLOBE has
made an attack on Judge FRANCIS. 1t
has done nothing of the kind. 1t has
simply given space to the letters of a
few seemingly indignant citizens, who
were apparently afflicted with the fear
that they would be Jailed for contempt
of court if they printed their effusions in
Dakota.
